Those Outrageous Outliers

It’s well understood that some of the best stories comes from the outrageous or difficult things we experience, and another is the people we meet along the way. It’s the outrageous, the outliers, that seem to be the most memorable, sometimes locals and other times travellers themselves. Who are these outrageous people that seem to seek out travellers, invite them into their home that sometimes put their life on hold to help and entertain travellers and what are their stories? Why are those people so interested in travellers?

To Hostel or to Not

The ups and downs of hostel stays and other ways to find a bed while travelling by motorcycle. What is it like to stay in a hostel? When, if ever, are you too old to say at a hostel? And which accommodations best connect a traveller with culture and their new surroundings?
